Title:
catching a common carp (Cyprinus carpio)
Description:
On May 28th 2006, my friend and I went "chumming" for carp in the harbor. About 45min. after casting our baited hooks with corn kernels, fellow members of the yacht club started up their noisy speed boat. The thundering rumble of the speed boat's engine likely startled the feeding carp which I presume had already taken the bait and began to run. I had to temporarily place the camera on the pier to reel in another baited line to prevent the two from becoming crossed. As you can see, I was almost unsuccessful at this task and subsequently my friend flippantly called me an "A-hole" at 0:44 sec. After netting the carp, we weighed in the sucker at 8 lbs. Hardly a catch to brag about, but it was the first catch of the summer. Like all the other fish we catch in this harbor, our bottom feeding freeloader was released afterwards. Common carp (Cyprinus carpio) is a relatively stout, deep-bodied, high back fish that generally grows to 25-55 cm (12-25 in) and 4-6 kg (8-10 lbs) but can grow much bigger with a North American record of more than 26 kg (57 lbs). The colour ranges from olive-green on the top, to brassy-yellow along the sides and bottom. Distinctive features include a short head; rounded snout; single, long dorsal fin; forked tail; and relatively large scales outlined in black. The mouth is toothless and sucker-like, adapted to bottom feeding, and has two fleshy barbels on either side. Common carp mature at ages 2-4 and spawn in late May to early June in shallow backwaters and along the shoreline. Eggs are deposited on the bottom and stick to objects, such as plants, in the water. Females can lay anywhere from 100,000 to 2 million eggs that hatch within 3-10 days. Carp grow quickly and can live, on average, of 15 years but may live up to 50 years. Common carp have predominantly vegetarian diets but will also feed on aquatic invertebrates. Their feeding activity has severe impacts on wetland habitats because they suck up sediments and organisms from the bottom, uproot and destroy vegetation and muddy the water.
